Dahlia POT PLANTS - Waterlily

Waterlily dahlias have double blooms with broad, but relatively few, ray-florets that are flat or slightly involute. This results in a flatter shape intermediate between that of the Decorative and the Single varieties with the flower depth being less than half its diameter. They have a delicate appearance which has some of the characteristics of waterlilies, hence their name. They have a range of bloom sizes from miniature to giant.

One popular variety, that has received the ‘RHS Award of Garden Merit’ is the 120 cm high ‘Glorie van Heemstede’ with its beautiful lemon-yellow flowers, about 12.5 cm across, that are set against a fresh-green foliage. It makes an attractive border plant and is bright and elegant inside in a vase. It features alongside many others in our collection.

To ensure that the highest quality is maintained during transit orders are dispatched in specialised packaging that contains three pots. There is a minimum order of one box of three pots. Larger quantities should be ordered in multiples of three, for example, 6, 9, 12, 15, etc. pot plants. Customers may select any combination of dahlia varieties from the same, or different, categories.

Our Dahlia POT PLANTS are available from APRIL until JUNE
